"This song is amazing! A proper broken-hearted country song, this."
"Mm. It was written by an artificial intelligence."
"Really? A song-writing AI?"
"No, an autonomous car whose owner swapped them for a newer model."

@nutt this is all secondhand so i might be mistaken about some stuff here, but:

i had a college course mostly about this city with an indigenous professor, basically the story was it nearly got erased from history because white anthropologists literally couldn't comprehend indigenous peoples being civilized, so they couldn't recognize a city when they found it, and the site was nearly destroyed

anyone who thinks written history isn't literally shaped by oppressive cultural narratives is totally wrong tbh, and from what i recall the reason the city fell wasn't even any aspect of indigenous culture, but disease spread by colonists and potentially some flooding

@olivia The sea's just doing what the sea does best. Reclaiming old things and returning them to the planet.
This also means that statues of old racist white men which have been thrown into the sea will be ruined forever OH NO HOW TERRIBLE

This means that big copper-based objects near the sea, like the Statue of Liberty are probably doomed.

The only way to stop the process is to remove one of the three things, chloride, water, or oxygen.

Keeping things in dry conditions will pause the process, but just a little moisture can set it off again.

Removing the chloride is more difficult. If you're lucky, it can be polished away. If you're less lucky, you need to use chemical treatments to remove it. And those aren't always possible
